Step One: Blot up Excess Color

Start by gently yet quickly blotting the stained area with a dry cloth or paper towel. This will help remove any excess color and prevent further spreading.

Step Two: Apply Mineral Spirits to Stain

On a separate cloth or piece of paper, apply some mineral spirits (found in most hardware stores) directly to stain. Blot and gently rub the mineral spirits into the fabric in a circular motion until you start to see color lifting off the material.

Step Three: Flush and Rinse

Flush and rinse the affected area with cold water, removing any remaining residue from the mineral spirits and from the colour. Be sure to check the inside of the fabric for colour as well, and to rinse thoroughly.

Step Four: Wash as Usual

Wash the item as usual in a washing machine using the appropriate detergent and fabric care instructions. Let it dry naturally in a warm place. Many times, stain may have been completely removed in one wash, but if needed, repeat this process.
